Shrine Renewal Project

Weather and time have taken a toll on Monte Cassino Shrine.
Recently, a generous benefactor stepped forward to lead the effort
to stabilize the old sandstone structure, beautify the grounds, and
make other needed repairs and improvements.

The project will be conducted in several phases. Work to
reinforce and stabilize the building and tuck point the exterior
was completed in 2016.

Because the chapel is not air conditioned or ventilated, a
heating, ventilation and air conditioning system is planned. This
will improve the comfort of visitors and keep the painted walls,
woodwork and artwork from deteriorating. Better lighting also will
be added.

Also planned for 2017 is new landscaping, including a prayer
garden and a sandstone front patio with benches, which will be
especially convenient for the rosary pilgrimages.

Join the Project

You're invited to join us in a project to restore this beautiful
and sacred place by making a gift or reserving a brick paver that
will be installed near the prayer garden at Monte Cassino
Shrine.

An inscribed brick paver is a special way to honor a loved one
or commemorate a special occasion, such as a birthday or
anniversary.

A 4" by 8" brick paver can be reserved with a gift of $200. The
paver has three lines for your inscription, with up to 16
characters per line, including spaces and punctuation. All messages
are subject to approval by Saint Meinrad.

To make a financial gift, click here to use our
secure online donation form.

Or order your paver(s) at this link. A limited number
of pavers are available, so order early. For more information,
please call Donna Lindauer at (800) 682-0988.
